What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead secure multi-cloud architecture, platform engineering, cloud governance, and responsible enterprise AI adoption across teams working in UK, EU, APAC, or US time zones.

At Ciena, I lead cloud governance and architecture across 200+ AWS accounts, 100+ Azure subscriptions, and 70+ GCP projects. I've delivered $250K+ in multi-cloud savings, improved CIS-aligned security posture to approximately 95%, and reduced cloud onboarding from weeks to hours through automation.

I architect cloud foundations, landing zones, Terraform-based platforms, GitOps workflows, and enterprise AI solutions including CienaGPT, Multi-Cloud Assist, and AI Playground. My work brings together Google Cloud, AWS, Azure, Vertex AI, Gemini Models, Responsible AI, security, FinOps, and developer experience.

Across Ciena, Aricent, TCS, Paladion, Mahindra Comviva, and wServe, I've built automation, supported critical production environments, and guided distributed engineering teams toward reliable, secure operations.
